Its a death sentence either way.
Just the fact that you have to hire Mercenary Killers to force your own Soldiers to fight for you, says a lot!
You mean like Ukraine.
@@iridefast1 Nope! Like the Russians! Dummy!~
@@iridefast1 It was seen that Putin's military was a first rate world power. So its quite a different context. The paper tiger is now abundantly exposed.
@@iridefast1 foreign volunteers. They’re not paid fool.
What about "BlackWater" "Academi" "Northbridge Services Group" "Vinnell Corp" ? All american based private military companies(actual true mercenarys , they get paid to go into conflict zones) they fought in Iraq Afganistan BlackWater was even accused of war crimes ... how come they are not labeled as terrorist organisations ?
I'm wondering who did the subtitles for 3:42 - 3:48. The subtitles absolutely do not match the words from the video in this time interval.
Good job.
He said something like "5 minutes you decide who wants to go with us and who doesn't"
What he said before that also doesn't match the subtitles
Because it's all so full of propaganda, they don't even care for accuracy like at all haha! West will be defeated and all your lies will be dismantled as your states - brick by brick - by your own citizens.
It's too easy.
"This is Wagner, the world's evil, they threaten people with execution even before they joined them" XD
Lmao!RUclips subtitles are allways a joke,even when they are in English and the video is in English!Looks like some sort of software like "Speach to text",cause some words have the same sound,most of the times can be pretty tricky!
As a native Ukrainian-Russian speaking person fully confirming this. The translation of Prigozhin is completely made up, when he was speaking surrounded by the felons he asked whether anyone knows about Wagner and if yes they have 5 mins to decide whether they want to join them and if not then just leave. Bullshit about either join or get killed is literally made up.
"In my opinion, yes." It's really disturbing that such vile people don't think of these war crimes as war crimes. They call it an act of duty, of honor to the motherland. But they were not the first.
Could you imagine doing a life sentence for whatever crime and this guy comes in and gives you an out. Thinking like a criminal I would be pumped and the carnage I could do with zero accountability to the local populace. What if there sex offenders they can do whatever with no accountability. I feel for the civilians in Ukraine who came across these evil men
Don't worry too much about it. Most of the criminals are already dead, outside of Bakhmut.
Ya allegedly no sex offenders are taken but cannibals were. And according to some study the average life span of one of them on the front is 4 hours
@@nicholasclegg9935 they’re right to do that no sex offenders were taken they already have enough of those in the ruZZian military
Yes I wish Putin and his generals/mercenaries the worst.
yeah but that out was a battlefield, if they cared about their lives that would be an instant nope
This chef turned criminal will soon fall out of the window.
It’ll come down to who throws who first
@@crazyworldandatfullspeed it s a tragedy when you respond to ignorants who are under such a dictator like Putin. I pass.

Imagine that, not valued enough to even be counted when you die for your country
Nothing new in the commune :)
What a way to get rid of overcrowded prisons. 😱
Yea, it is very maddening, how powerful states are treating their own people.
If you consider that in the US private companies get good money from the government for keeping prisoners, even incentivizing the whole affairs of persecution to fill up the prisons and build more on taxpayers bill. That is sick on its own.
In China people disappear! And China has a huge organ donor industry. I do not want to think this to the end.
In Russia they gather them and throw them at the enemy. I dunno what to think about that, but the level of inhumanity that has been reached makes me sick.
PutRin decides whom he doesn’t want to feed anymore.
Not really. Once word goes out that the first wave of recruited convicts are mostly dead conscripting new prisoners becomes very difficult and very dangerous!
Prison riots and killing of pro-Wagner guards skyrocket
Prigozjin will probably fall out a window soon. He claims the Russian army not delivering ammo to them.
Ammunition, I think, meant the prisoners and not the shells
Yeah that dude shouldn't leave the first floor ever ...
One can only help…I mean hope.
Prigozhin is getting too powerful and popular with the Russian people, and Putin doesn't want anyone growing strong enough to become his rival, so I figure you may well be right.
@@crazyworldandatfullspeed - you are crazy. I feel sorry for you. Russia invaded another country. They started the war. Crazy world because of crazy people like you.
I will never understand how some people could be so cruel and inhumane to other people. How did you grow up to be so heartless? Were you just born this way? There's definitely not good in everyone.
Unfortunately, humans are genetically predisposed to kill each other. 😔
Lethal violence is 7 times higher than the average of all mammals.
Violence exists in the animal world of course, but on a far different scale.
Remember Iraq war when indiscriminately villages were bombed from air and tanks took direct shots at people's houses with women and children in them. Those US soldiers are having so many mental issues now.
What shocks me more is how individuals in all countries support these evil actions.
Born that way. Many humans are simply psychopaths. Period.
Childhood abuse, neglect and trauma does that to you
3:46 translation is so wrong...
he is saying "you have 5 minutes to think before we enter the building, so decide who wants to go or who wants to stay"
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
If Wagner “stopped recruiting prisoners for now”; there can be only one such reason: They’re outta prisoners.
Dudes in prison are like no thanks, I love it here in the gulag. Ukraine sounds terrible.
No, it's because the Russian army want the prioners for themselves.
Ukraine has definitely thinned the ranks for sure.
The recruitment was voluntary, but Putins has now banned Wagner from recruiting prisoners. Prigozhin is getting too powerful.
The plan is to pass a law for mass amnesty from prison. And as soon as the prisoners get out, they get conscripted and sent to the front.
Nope. It's just because somebody ordered him to stop.
“They throw people In just as meat”
Welcome to the infantry.
Some don't even get a gun, just told to charge through the front line and getting the positions of the Ukrainian soldiers when they're firing at them, Nobody's life is special, especially excons, sad world we all stay in, Spooky sad world.
Well they dumb. Best strategy is night or heat vision. And everybody fire at the same side
Funny. But that's not how most infantry operate.

Many years ago, there was a movie (Dirty-Dozen), this idea has been around for a long time and is the same script except using real prisoners. The absolute lack of empathy is concerning as the public that encounters these soldiers have no chance against the laws they'll never recognize; this is hard to imagine going forward in the new millennium.
and, if remember correctly, in the movie, the lack of empathy made their mission a disaster

There is nothing interesting, on both sides. Today the both ways propaganda is trying to picture who is worse and who is good, this is a paradox and a game. We should not believe anyone from both sides! BBC , VICE and Oliver Stone did a great job and neonazi militias in Ukraine and Wagner is not a big secret or news!

Wagner should be considered a terrorist organization based on what exactly? In what ways is Prigozian like Bin Laden. People can’t just say things with no substance. Fighting in a war on the side of your country is not terrorism no matter if your country is right or wrong. Terrorists do things like blow up bridges with truck bombs and blow up underwater gas pipelines. Let’s find those people and charge them as terrorists first.

What kind of stupid nonsense is that? No one is forcing the prisoners. Signing a contract is completely voluntary, no one is forcing them.
@@theodemirweltmann9673 Nobody is saying they are being forced. But the whole point is, for most of the entire rest of the world, prison is viewed as a means to isolate criminals while the state rehabilitates them to become functioning members of society again. Russia is basically saying "you being a murderer / batterer / rapist isn't a bad thing, it's a great thing. here is a gun, for the next 6 months go kill the people we tell you to kill and you can do whatever you want to them -- kill em, torture em while you kill em, rape em, we don't care (cause we're gonna kill you by a suicide charge in 5 months and 29 days if the enemy hasn't killed you by then)"

There's another video that has the audio of one of these prisoners telling his wife that he was going to be executed. When his wife got his body back, she was told that he died of a shrapnel wound received during battle. The guy's entire battalion had been killed, and he was the only survivor. He was sent back to Russia, only to be executed as a traitor. Russia has no intention of sending any of these prisoners back with a pardon.

I think the phrase is two birds with one stone but that works!
They get rid of criminals but thousands of innocent Ukrainians have been raped, tortured, and beaten to death or executed by them.

@@Recon6delta A simple exercise of imagination, a convict for rape who has been in prison for 5 years conquers a village with a pro-Russian population and meets a defenseless woman who is happy to have escaped the Ukrainians. there is no police, it's chaos, he has a gun in his hand...
Prigozhin is just a waiter.
You recruit a specific type of person.. orphan, someone brought up in violent environments or young hardened criminal.. put them thru a two year boot camp.. and give them leadership rewards all type of violence whether on the battlefield or as a civilian.. then reinforce it by what this soldier details in this interview..

С Путиным всё гут, не надо врать! Не получиться развалить Россию оплаченными революциями из США, ни войнами! Россия очень сильная страна как и люди, в отличии от слабых, которые США унижают! Слава Богу Северная Корея научилась делать ядерные бомбы, теперь НАТО и США трусливо скулят, надеюсь и Ирак сделает, нет, то Россия поможет! США уже теряют свою власть, после победы России, все страны кого обидело США войдут в состав ОДКБ с Россией, Европа развалиться и начнётся хаус, да уж поздно будет, натворили он дел!
Russia is a democracy, genius. 🤣🤣

Never seen a soldier use an SVDS
In another interview, this so called defector says that he hadn’t seen any war crimes being committed, and now he says yes? Alright.
Umm, link please? Also, if it was early in his escape, he could have been afraid to speak against the Kremlin.
I would point out his lack of education, the guy looks no more than 25 and was a convict before being sent to frontlines as a piece of meat. It wouldn't exactly be a long stretch to say he may not have understood what a war crime was. I mean if I ask most people with master degrees to list me 3 war crimes I don't think even 50% could.
every prisoner that fights or has fought for wagner does get training and thats a fact although training isnt the same as real combat those who survive get that combat experience and they become battle hardend those who dont react quick get killed, do you think that only applies to wagner and russian forces? NO there is videos and pictures of ukrainian truck drivers saying that they drive newly trained soldiers to the front in the morning and in the night they have to go get their dead bodies to bring them back so basically both sides have large losses only time will tell what will happen.
Hello 👋🏻 my name is Benjamin and you...?
Key word training hence why there is little western outrage. Sending un trained and ex convicts is just a dangerous and even silly thing to do.
The right words, the Ukrainian army is exhausted, all experienced soldiers have been killed long ago, now 80% of the soldiers are recruits with no experience and 2 out of 10 survive
@@kaparza9396 Not to mention they are kidnapping people off the streets in Ukraine to go join the army ... but hey, only Russia bad!
@@kaparza9396 yes thats what i meant in short what kind of stormtrooper or special forces or a very good soldier can be created in a week thats inpossible
Besides the prison thing whats the difference between Blackwater and Wagner? One if definitely a little more professional but still its private military.
Can you imagine redrawing the lines of Nato and saying, “We didn’t step past the line, we just moved it further and now you’re on our side.”
NATO is used as a protection only. NATO never invades a country just because. If NATO operated like Russia, they would have invaded Belarus ages ago. Your logic doesnt work CoffeeMcBee1. You've been brainwashed by russian propaganda
This guy needs to be captured and handed over to the FBI.
FBI 😂😂😂😂
@@johnblasik9647 he is on their wanted list.
Please Join me in reporting to RUclips Hindustan Times. This channel on RUclips is constantly spewing out Pro Russian anti West Propaganda and hatred. Almost all the commentators spew out Nuke the West and other incitement to violence and Hate speech. The channel is horribly one sided and misleading and doesn't deserve a platform on RUclips just as RT and Sputnik TV were similarly banned. Thanks!
This has been by far the best comment I've read so far :) It's genuine, unlike alot of people around this conflict 😆
@@Sharky1101 Only brainwashed Americans think FBI or CIA are good people.
Are we in the 21st century? Or Re we in the middle ages? Its sad for humanity.. Who kills or who dies and die.. Its very sad. I as a human being from Sri Lanka wish peace! 🙏
Don't judge the rest of the world from where you live ! try visit a few of the world's shithole, many places are barely out of the stone age.
i didn't know that Russian PMC is doing activity in Indonesia
Was this before or after it was recorded via Selfie by the Wagner group that give away their address in Ukraine
I hope for this mans safety. There are most likely Russian loyalists here in the United States that go out to find men like him. I really hope hes in some kind of protective service.
Hes in Norway, not America
TRUE ... PEDO JOE Biden showered with his daughter. #FuckUkraine .....Z.
Apparently he already got in trouble in Norway for assaulting a police officer while intoxicated.
he is a war criminal and should bear responsibility and not rest in Europe
@@Tizzer88 yeah i found that out like a week after posting this
Odd that someone that fears for his life goes on a globally broadcast forum showing his face, name and new location.
Was wondering same thing. This is fishy.
He said he doesn't fear for his life. "Am I at risk? Yes. Am I afraid? No."
His story is fiction !
@@onemarine6666 Exactly
You always see these stereotypes in movies, but damn here it's real
I wouldn't be surprised if the people who were arrested for protesting the war in Russia that got sent to jail for 12 years would magically end up on the front line as canon food as well.
They can just shoot and stab Putin's lapdogs in the middle of night
People always wish peace on earth. But leaders don't.
You can always believe everything a traitor says.

They're used the same way you'd use rocks rolling down a hill; if any make a hole you charge-in with the good troops waiting in the wings.

Разве когда Уголовник готов искупить свою вину перед родиной и ему это предоставляют не считается демократическим действием или демократия по Амереканский считается лишь тогда когда тоже самое действие происходит лишь только в США и их союзников! У других все это же самое, считется варварство и диктатурой??🤣🤣
I was offered a position with a private military company (PMC) AKA a mercenary group. I was warned though... We work for the highest bidder, we would sometimes get paid to fight American forces and I would have to be okay with that... I was not okay with that 😟 It's wasn't Blackwater USA either but a PMC just as big that has managed to fly under public radar as far as awareness. People only found out about Blackwater when it was discovered that's who U.S. forces were engaging in the middle east...
damn dude. Blackwater doesn't play by the rules either. my spec war mentor worked for them when they became Academi or something. said it was chock-full of operators who didn't have an off-switch. but the fact you were asked to work for a group outside of the U.S just as big is a bit scary.
@@TissueBox271 I was introduced to it when I sold an operator a Nissan Armada that they were going to armor plate and arm with a rooftop turret. It would be headed to the middle east. The operator I interacted with was actually a really nice guy and pretty highly ranked and decorated. The PMC was Triple Canopy.
@B Savage they do some wild stuff to their vehicles lol. my apologies I meant "off switch" as when they have a tough time going back to normal life or refuse to and im glad he was a good dude, and I actually heard of triple canopy once from my chief on deployment.
Prayers God protect him and provide for him 🙏 in Jesus name
they said that they are not trained and immediately showed a video where they train))
Prigozhin, you should stay away from windows over 1 story above the ground, you should have a Geiger counter check all of your food and drinks. You should also always wear body armor at all times. Why? Because your best friend is Puny Putin.
He's wearing a chemical mask now. Ukrs got clever again.

Yes I agree my fellow scorched brain! За Монолит!
It's a way of controlling the growing prison population. It's not really a loss to Russia.
People like you are sick and would fit right in with Putin's regime. You can get sent to prison in Russia for hardly anything at all. Not all prisoners are in for the same crime. You would root for their slaughter, indiscriminately? Stay anonymous, you heartless cowards.
How did he stood against it all ? By moving to Norway 😊👍.
